<p>Seems like he has a problem with the final edit of the movie and not anything specific about GMO. This is a growing problem with documentaries where the filmmakers claim a certain angle to get people to participate but reveal a corporate angle in the edit.<p>This is his actual position (source: <a href="https://michaelpollan.com/articles-archive/vote-for-the-dinner-party/" rel="nofollow">https://michaelpollan.com/articles-archive/vote-for-the-dinn...</a> 2012)<p>> Americans have been eating genetically engineered food for 18 years, and as supporters of the technology are quick to point out, we don’t seem to be dropping like flies. But they miss the point. The fight over labeling G.M. food is not foremost about food safety or environmental harm, legitimate though these questions are. The fight is about the power of Big Food. Monsanto has become the symbol of everything people dislike about industrial agriculture: corporate control of the regulatory process; lack of transparency (for consumers) and lack of choice (for farmers); an intensifying rain of pesticides on ever-expanding monocultures; and the monopolization of seeds, which is to say, of the genetic resources on which all of humanity depends.<p>Largely he's been proven correct as GMO crops from Monsanto have has negative biological, legal and financial consequences on neighboring crops and water supplies. <a href="https://cases.open.ubc.ca/monsanto-and-terminator-seeds/#:~:text=Monsanto%20and%20Terminator%20Seeds%20Monsanto,many%20GMOs%20into%20the%20earth." rel="nofollow">https://cases.open.ubc.ca/monsanto-and-terminator-seeds/#:~:...</a> GMO crops from other sources don't have the same problems.</p>

<p>I have had pretty good luck with Realtek's 2.5gb chipset (PCIe card and USB 3 dongle) in TrueNAS, PopOS and Arch. I think the driver situation is pretty stable now.<p>I have had an Intel V225 fail on me but the V226 replacement has been working.</p>

<p>I think a lot of people point to parenting but don't lay it out as well as you did here. On the subject of God, Church used to be a place where kids practiced reading. Now it's just some VC backed dude talking at people about personal and political grievances for half the day. Reading/literacy tutoring is also now some VC backed business that becomes more expensive every year.</p>

<p>It seems like the 90-series cards are going to be targeting prosumers again. People who play games but may use their desktop for work as well. Some people are doing AI training on some multiple of 3090/4090 today but historically the Titan cards that preceded the 90s cards were used by game developers, video editors and other content developers. I think NVIDIA is going to try to move the AI folks onto Digits and return the 90-series back to its roots but also add in some GenAI workloads.</p>

<p>From a tech perspective I think it's interesting how social media is going to affect this case. The jury problem is absolutely a function of bottom-up memefication versus old tech centralized broadcasting with a bunch of other factors sprinkled in.</p>
